A Little Friendly Competition.... The 2010 "Golden Manatee" Awards

A while back Rosey, from Dung Hoe, introduced her blog readers to this charming and fun website: Along Life's Highway - The Yard Art Game. I have become a frequent visitor and back in October even submitted a 'yard art' entry I had seen. Low and behold, it was featured on the blog (Princess Gnome)! (Imagine my thrill! -- and the thrill of the yard art owner, I might add)

Princess Gnome Bride - not your everyday yard art!

Well, I just found out that this little 'gem' still has a few more minutes of fame! For the next day and half (Tuesday, 1/4/11 at 8pm ET through 1/6/11 at Midnight ET), it will be in the running - along with 24 other worthy candidates - for a "Golden Manatee" award!! Check it out!

The 2010 Golden Manatee Awards are not to be missed! Like the "People's Choice" - YOU can review the candidates and VOTE! If you haven't had a chance to visit "Along Life's Highway", you really should. The author and participants have a wonderful sense of humor and dry wit - and the yard art featured is not anything you may have seen anywhere else. Enjoy!

Tufa Girl ... let's talk! (BTW - "Chairees" is the new classic! You are my hero!)

LifesHwy - I believe this year's "Golden Manatees" are going to be off the charts! I'm convinced that "Laura" (w/ her current 49 votes) is either a Ninja computer programmer OR a member of the Duggar family (TLC '19 & counting'). I do give her props for her - "Fetch My Flying Monkeys" blog name & content!!

About Me

My journey in gardening started from modest beginnings - with a couple of plants. I always have loved design & color, it just hadn't occurred to me to 'create' with plants. Unlike an oil or watercolor painting, gardens are a work in progress. So I can be as messy as I want, and happy as a clam!
